Gooey, flowing, wet, stagnant, and slipping into place. The
surfaces of cloth, paint, plastic, and paper move along like the
dirty Des Plaines River. I witness the places where nature and
discarded design make art.
Great graphic surfaces form next to toppled trees, where deer
will die and mushrooms will emerge. We throw things away while
daily drama unfolds. In Schiller Woods South, commercial scraps
go down the river, and its misty waters carry styrofoam rafts. It is
still beautiful, it is tragic, it is a high-speed blender.
